    Built between the second half of the 12th century and the first half of the 13th century, this schist and granite castle was destroyed during the Hundred Years War and then rebuilt by Jean de Rohan from 1475 to 1493. The pond, located at north of the castle, fed the moats which are now filled in.

    From 1616, the site, which was already in very poor condition, was gradually abandoned for more than three centuries. It will take a buyout by the municipality to begin a vast revaluation of its ruins, and a rehabilitation of the buildings.

    I advise you to take the time to explore the remains of this castle with its typical architecture from the end of the 15th century, whose past splendor we can only imagine.
